The correct way of pronoucing it would be Japanese pronouciation.

Lay man: Sakagay
Literally: Sah-kah-geh

i thought it was Suh Kah Gay

sah-kah-gay
the accent over the e gives it an "ay" sound in french, that's how i pronounced it at least

I say it Sah-kah-je, with a kinda french sound to the j and with the fada over the e in the book i gave it a long ehhhhhh sound (fada is irish for long, so if you put a fada over someting you're literally lengthening the vowel)
